KursadA Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 CD48147 will be my second RF-101C sheet, due in December. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Corey Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Thanks for doing two Voodoo sheets! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) This one will have more Vietnam options with nose art ("Gerry's Clown", "Luv Bug" and "The Iron Eyeball") , two very colorful silver jets as well as an overall ADC gray example. There is another (not shown) with the large US national insignia and USAF markings needed for the natural metal options - it is the same sheet included with my earlier F-101A/C set (CD48052).

tony.t Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Super! Getting this one as well. The 66th TRW option is great - thanks Kursada for the extra coverage! Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Air Pirate Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Kursad, Excited to see The Iron Eyeball, always liked that marking. I know it's late, but Pg. 238 of Doug Gordon's "Tactical Reconnaissance in the Cold War", Pen & Sword 2006, is a photo of the right side of the nose, with THE EYEBALL HAS COME HAS SEEN HAS CONQUERED in white block caps. Maybe you already knew that, if so sorry, but I didn't see it on the photos of the sheets. Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It certainly is not too late, and I will add the missing marking. If someone has the book and can snap a quick photo, please send me a PM. If not, I am sure the vast Univ of Texas library system has the book. And you, sir, get a free decal sheet when it is available. Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skyhawk174 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Hey Don thanks for helping Kursad make the decal more accurate. That little tidbit should look cool on the model. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Air Pirate Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Thank you. sirs. Not often I san help! Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted November 5, 2018 Author Share Posted November 5, 2018 The book is a goldmine of information and photos on USAF recce aircraft - in addition to a accurate "The Iron Eyeball", I can see adding many interesting RB-66, RB-57 and perhaps even some RB-26 options to future sheets..

KursadA Posted November 6, 2018 Author Share Posted November 6, 2018 After buying an electronic (Kindle) version of the book, I updated the design and added the marking. Some of the details in the book allowed me to correct at least one marking. As I mentioned, I will make good use of some of the other photos in the book in future sheets.

KursadA Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 (edited) Available for preorder now - but please hold on if you are going to order other sheets so you can bundle orders. I should have all the other sheets in this batch available for preordering by this weekend.

Dutch Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 I am going to revive this thread for a minute. Now that Valom is releasing both a 1/144 F-101A/C and a 1/144 RF-101C kit (both available in November), would it be possible to scale your single F-101A/C sheet (CD48052) and two 1/48 RF-101 sheets (CD48073 & CD48147) to 1/144 scale? I would love to see these markings in Braille scale. Oh, would you consider scaling your 1/48 F-101A/C sheet down to 1/72 as well, please? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
